Netafim Polyethylene Irrigation Tubing - 100ft Roll - 16mm - Black - 0.520in ID x 0.620in OD

Netafim Polyethylene Irrigation Tubing -- 16mm, 100ft Roll, Black

Netafim Polyethylene Irrigation Tubing provides reliable water distribution for drip and micro-irrigation systems across a wide range of growing environments. Made from low-density polyethylene resin, the NET19951-000093 16mm black tubing (0.520in ID x 0.620in OD) resists UV degradation and chemical exposure for long-term performance in surface, subsurface, and suspended irrigation installations. Available in a 100ft roll for system-scale installations. This 100ft roll suits smaller installations, repairs, or as a spare roll for an existing 16mm drip system.

Key Features & Benefits

• Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) Construction: Flexible, durable, and resistant to cracking and kinking during installation and seasonal temperature changes.
• UV Resistant: Withstands prolonged sun exposure in greenhouse, nursery, and outdoor field installations without degrading.
• Acid Resistant: Compatible with fertilizer solutions, pH-adjusted water, and other inputs common in horticultural irrigation programs.
• 16mm Diameter -- 0.520in ID x 0.620in OD: Sized for standard Netafim drip fittings, emitters, and distribution hardware.
• 100ft Roll: The NET19951-000093 roll suits system-scale installations, minimizing joints and reducing installation labor.
• Suitable for Surface, Subsurface, or Suspended Use: Flexible enough for overhead greenhouse runs, in-bed drip lines, or buried irrigation layouts.

Greenhouse operators, nursery managers, and drip irrigation installers building or expanding Netafim-based irrigation systems. Suitable for container production, row cropping, overhead misting lines, and field drip applications.

Compatibility

Designed for use with Netafim drip fittings, emitters, and distribution system components. 16mm sizing (0.520in ID x 0.620in OD) is compatible with standard Netafim barbed and compression fittings for this tubing class.

Frequently Asked Questions

What material is this tubing made from?

Netafim PE irrigation tubing is made from low-density polyethylene resin for UV resistance, flexibility, and long service life across repeated seasonal installations. This resin choice also keeps the tubing pliable in cold weather, reducing the risk of cracking during installation.

Can this tubing be used underground?

Yes -- it is suitable for surface, subsurface, and suspended irrigation installations, depending on how your system is designed. Confirm burial depth guidance for your climate to protect the tubing from freeze damage.

How do I confirm the NET19951-000093 tubing fits my existing fittings?

This 16mm tubing has an inner diameter of 0.520in and an outer diameter of 0.620in. Compare these dimensions against your fitting manufacturer's spec sheet before ordering to confirm a proper fit.

Is this tubing compatible with standard Netafim fittings?

Yes -- it is designed for use with the Netafim fitting and emitter system for this tubing diameter class, ensuring a consistent, leak-resistant fit. Netafim fittings are dimensioned specifically around this tubing's ID and OD tolerances.
